Selected scaffolds’ formation techniques—main applications and advantages/disadvantages.

Method	Applications	Advantages	Disadvantages
Electrospinning	Bone, nerve, skin, and cardiac tissue engineering [28]	High surface area to volume ratio, high porosity, easy process	Limited range of polymers
Phase separation	Protein delivery applications and/or drug release [29]	Bioactive agents can be incorporated into the structure, high porosity	Limited ranges of pore size, problems with residual solvents
Solvent casting	Vascular tissue engineering applications [30]	Simple method, controlled porosity	Low mechanical strength, limited thickness, small pore size
